The Porsche 906 looks beautiful. After the recent Shelby Cobra and Lancia Stratos reissues my cup runneth over.
I can't wait to get my hands on the 906.

The limited edition MR-03 looks really nice. Unfortunately, the price tag is around the $350 mark. Personally, I can't justify buying that and then racing/modifying it. I hope to see some with deeper pockets than I, racing them and thrashing them like they were meant to be.

i agree, the price will ensure it's a small qnty stock product. the higher the entry costs get, the smaller a market they make for themselves. for those with more opinions on pricing and the economics issues, please take it to the recent and ongoing discussion here.
i happen to like the yellow myself.

They should do gold and silver chrome plated chassis... that might catch on more than yellow/red/blue... unless they were red and blue chrome plated

The Yellow chassis with limited pre-installed options (with LM/MM/RM motor mount)

~~~ picture~~~ it says "spot manufacturing". not saying "limited manufacturing"....

A new released "Tire Gauge" included. You save JPY4,700 compare to buying these options separately.
※A Yellow chassis will be released this year. Black, white, red, yellow and chrome chassis make MR-03 gorgeous.


According the picture, pre-installed options are,
- bearing
- color nylon nuts (gold)
- ball diff. (gold)
- X-speed V motor
- re ar oil damper
- front spring
- setting tie rod
- ball diff. shaft
(thanks Okabe! )

I also asked Kyosho for info and they estimated March arrival.

Well, it at least explains why this pic appeared to suggest that a free plastic Team Orion logo was included!
